US Popularity Rank: 18387

Origin: Latin

Meaning: From Sextus; The sixth born; Pertaining to Pope Sixtus; Of the Sistine Chapel

Baby will arrive with visions of Michelangelo’s frescoes in their eyes with the momentous title Sistine. A girl’s name, Sistine has Latin origins, deriving from Sextus. Meaning “the sixth born,” “pertaining to Pope Sixtus,” and “of the Sistine Chapel,” this moniker is strongly linked to the Roman Catholic faith. The famously breathtaking Sistine Chapel is nestled in the Vatican Palace. In awe of the Renaissance painter’s works The Creation of Adam and The Last Judgment, around five million tourists flock to the chapel each year. Naming your little one after this masterpiece is a heartwarming testament to your love for them. Hopefully when baby Sistine grows older, they’ll have the chance to visit their namesake and wonder at its beauty.
